[Intro]
(count-in, guitar riff)
One, two, three, four!
[Verse 1]
Little red hood, walking through the trees
Basket on her arm, dancing with the breeze
Mama said, “Now don't you stray too far”
But the woods looked bright beneath the morning star
She heard a voice from somewhere out of sight
“Pretty little girl, won't you stop a while?”
She turned around with a curious smile
And there stood a wolf with a dangerous style
[Pre-Chorus]
He said, “Where you going?”
She said, “That's my affair”
He said, “Lovely weather”
She said, “I don't care!”
[Chorus]
Run, Red, run!
Don't stop, don't wait!
There's a hungry wolf
And he's running late!
Run, Red, run!
Through the woods tonight!
If he shows his teeth,
You'd better hold on tight!
[Verse 2]
“Well, where you headed with that pretty little load?”
“To Grandma's house at the end of the road.”
The wolf just grinned, “Well, isn't that sweet?”
Then he disappeared on his four quick feet
Red kept walking, singing to herself
While the wolf took shortcuts through the trees
He knocked on Grandma's little wooden door
And she said, “Who's there?”
He said, “It's me!”
[Chorus]
Run, Red, run!
Don't stop, don't wait!
There's a hungry wolf
And he's running late!
Run, Red, run!
Through the woods tonight!
If he shows his teeth,
You'd better hold on tight!
[Bridge]
(music drops, quiet guitar)
Little Red reached Grandma's door
But something didn't seem quite right
“Grandma, what big ears you've got!”
“All the better to hear you tonight.”
“What big eyes you've got!”
“All the better to see.”
“And what big teeth you've got!”
“All the better for...”
(band crashes back in)
ME!
[Final Chorus]
Run, Red, run!
Now the game is on!
Grab your basket, girl,
And don't you let him win!
Run, Red, run!
Hear that hunter shout!
The wolf jumped through the window
And the chase was on!
[Outro]
(fast guitar riff)
Run, Red!
Run, Red!
Run, Red!
(wolf howl)
HEY!
(final guitar hit)
